I think these month by month episodes are the correct amount of forearms. We have a few books that RAVE about forearms. Enjoy these forearm loving stories.

If you want a well rounded conversation about romance books and life, you've found it! We take a finding road from Hailey's introduction to romance, to how she's evolved as a reader, to where she wants romance to go. We laugh and we laugh some more.

I read 21 books. Out of those, there's only one book I didn't enjoy. I like that percentage. I did my best to keep Sephie blind for these books, so you get her reaction to my reaction.

In the month of May we had 10 books with forearms. I finally made this episode a quickie!!!! Enjoy.

Hi All!!!

I’m giving you a bit more time for this book club episode. I will be reading From Bad to Cursed by Lana Harper with Devon, who you will meet in the episode.

That episode will go live on August 30th!

If you have any questions, comments, observations, or whatever that you want to share, send an email to jayce@jaycereadsromance.com before August 15th.

Can’t wait to get spooky season started!

For Courtney's pick, we read Sunstone Vol. 1 & 2 by Stjepan Šejić. This is a queer, kinky graphic novel. You can hear how excited Courtney was to hear my thoughts.

Had a great time sharing my reads with Sephie. I read 21 books in June. Massive spoilers!!!!! And the "synopses" are comedically short on purpose.

Jess and I have a conversation about the growth of the romance world over the last 20+ years. Where it's been, where we've seen the change, where we see the need for growth. She shares the books that have influenced her over the years, and some of the authors she's following now.

Hi ya’ll! We have our second Book Club episode landing on July 19th!!!!!

Courtney Abbott is joining me after we read Sunstone Volume 1 & Sunstone Volume 2 by Stjepan Šević.

Grab these graphic novels from bookshop, your library, or wherever you can find them. Can’t wait to share this conversation with you!

I love a reader interview! Katy and I chatted about how she got into romance. What kept her connected over the years, and what she’s devoured since finding her romance passion about a year ago. We explored romantasy, contemporary romance, the diversity that now exists in the romance genre that didn't 10+ years ago.

Sharing all the books I read with some insights to what I thought. Sophie and I had a BLAST!!!

We finish our conversation about how to media "teaches" us about sex. Where we learn, and how romance novels can positively or negatively affect us. We get into the stats I've been collecting and what we hope the future looks like.

In this episode, we talk about women’s sexual pleasure. How young people are educated (or not) about it. What’s changing. The literal anatomy of the clitoris. And some very personal things about ourselves.

Mel shares the history of Steamy Lit. This company (subscription box, store, non-profit, conference) was founded with the intention to champion marginalized voices. How the action we take can impact change in this world. Where we hope to see the growth in this space.

This mini episode got posted a little bit early, my mistake with the audio file. Sorry! Enjoy your monthly dose of forearms.

This week we handed over the episode to our editor, Michael. He's been planning this one for a while. He collected a treasure trove of bloopers over the last 6 months, and he's ready to share them. Sephie and I are just along for the ride.

This is why romance readers are the best. If you haven’t started following Trigger Warning Romance because you need a taste, I’m giving you a spoon!!!! I had a blast reading and talking about Winter’s Arrow with Nat. So grateful that she’s letting me share them with you as bonus episodes.

Hi! We are still on break here at Jayce Reads Romance. We will return with our next full episode on May 9th.

Follow along with me on Instagram or TikTok. Both are linked in the icons at the top of the page.

The move has made recording a new episode these next few weeks more than a little challenging. I’m be using this time to set up my new office and do some deep dives for future episodes.
